Will 2013 Be Known As The Year America Dies?

Paul Joseph Watson: Will 2013 be remembered by future historians as the year that the United States of America to all intents and purposes died as a Republic and was finally seized by authoritarian globalists who have already openly usurped governments all across Europe?

A brief foray into the events that shaped 2012 sends the clear signal that America stands on the precipice of total collapse unless the full frontal assault on everything that characterizes the bedrock of the U.S. is reversed.

The globalists have already conquered every major government in the west and have fully implemented their draconian policies in a uniform fashion. 2013 will likely be the benchmark for when those policies were truly visited upon the peoples of those nations and the consequences laid bare for all to see.

Have you ever wondered how billionaires continue to get RICHER, while the rest of the world is struggling?

"I study billionaires for a living. To be more specific, I study how these investors generate such huge and consistent profits in the stock markets -- year-in and year-out."

The liberties that many Americans still cherish and the freedoms they exercise are not compatible with the despotic system that the global elite has in store for the United States.

Europe Conquered, Now America’s Turn

The recent “surprise” announcement that Canadian Mark Carney is to be appointed Governor of the Bank of England means that the 2012 Bilderberg attendee completes Goldman Sachs’ virtual domination over all the major economies of Europe. The economies of England, France, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Greece, and Belgium are all now controlled by individuals who harbor a direct relationship with Goldman Sachs. The international banking giant, notorious for its corruption and insider trading, now has massive influence over virtually every major western economy on the planet.

During a recent CNBC segment, financial analysts admitted to viewers that America is under the control of a group of central bankers who are building a world government – a damning insight into how the establishment has dispensed with any pretense of trying to hide their agenda as it is finalized. We are all now “slaves to central banks.”

A global government is now being forcefully pushed as the “solution” to all manner of problems, but specifically in relation to financial crises. We are being brainwashed to accept the premise that centralized power in the hands of a tiny elite is the only recourse, and that a one world currency is inevitable.

Europe is virtually a done deal for the globalists, now every ounce of financial independence and every scintilla of economic sovereignty is to be sucked out of the United States as the bankers seek to put the final capstone on their pyramid of absolute power in 2013.

2nd Amendment in the Crosshairs

In the aftermath of the Connecticut school massacre, the authoritarians’ appetite for trampling the second amendment has never been so voracious. In the face of record gun sales, Barack Obama indicated in the aftermath of the shooting that he would pursue new gun control regulations via Congress, fulfilling a promise he made back in 2011 to gun control advocate Sarah Brady at a White House meeting during which he told her that he was working on gun control “under the radar”.

Riding parallel to the domestic assault on gun rights is an effort to outlaw firearms at the international level. The Obama administration has made clear its willingness to sign up to a United Nations global arms treaty which threatens to outlaw guns in the U.S.

Final discussions on the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) are set to take place in March next year. The New American notes that, “Section III, Paragraphs 7 and 8 of the Programme of Action mandate that if a member state cannot get rid of privately owned small arms legislatively, then the control of “customs, police, intelligence, and arms control” will be placed under the power of a board of UN bureaucrats operating out of the UN Office for Disarmament Affairs,” opening the door for UN peacekeeping forces to disarm American citizens.

Will 2013 see the Obama administration not only move to re-instate the assault weapons ban, but to eviscerate the second amendment completely?

NDAA – Justification for Tyranny

A recent amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act – which legalizes the kidnapping and indefinite detention without trial of U.S. citizens – actually doubles down the indefinite detention provision and “makes matters worse by explicitly allowing the military to take Americans into custody.”

Just like the Japanese were rounded up and put in detention camps during world war two, the NDAA now greases the skids for political dissidents to be targeted in the aftermath of a national emergency.

Will 2013 see the first Americans imprisoned secretly without trial under the NDAA, or will rights activists kill this odious piece of legislation for good?

Re-Education Camps For Dissidents

A leaked U.S. Army document prepared for the Department of Defense contains shocking plans for “political activists” to be pacified by “PSYOP officers” into developing an “appreciation of U.S. policies” while detained in prison camps inside the United States.

The document makes it clear that the policies apply “within U.S. territory” and involve, “DOD support to U.S. civil authorities for domestic emergencies, and for designated law enforcement and other activities,” including “man-made disasters, accidents, terrorist attacks and incidents in the U.S. and its territories.”

Will a massive civil emergency in 2013 lead to American citizens being interned in detention camps simply for their political views, or will further exposure of these draconian plans force the government into mothballing such measures?

Obamacare: Bankrupting the Nation – Morally & Financially

While sending health insurance premiums through the roof, Obamacare will also set loose the cancer of big government to a level never previously witnessed in the United States.

With more than 20 new taxes being imposed on the American people as a consequence of Obamacare, the IRS has been given hundreds of millions of extra dollars to hunt down violators.

Small businesses across the country face the prospect of bankruptcy as a result of the crippling cost of having to provide expensive health insurance coverage for their employees. Congressional Budget Office Director Douglas Elmendorf testified before the House Budget Committee that the Affordable Care Act would cost America 800,000 jobs.

Costs of products, food and services are also going to spike even higher for consumers as businesses are forced to raise their prices to cover the cost of Obamacare.

Although Obamacare doesn’t officially begin until January 2014, some provisions will begin to apply in 2013, and the effects of businesses having to prepare for its huge financial burden will send shock waves through the U.S. economy during the coming year.

The ethical implications of Obamacare also present a huge threat to America’s moral backbone.

President Obama has repeatedly expressed his support for the Medicare Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB), a group of doctors that would make decisions on cost cutting measures under Obamacare. Opponents of government-run healthcare have dubbed this a system of “death panels” that would have the power to refuse treatment to the elderly or severely ill patients, a de-facto form of mandatory euthanasia.

The idea that “death panels” would be introduced through Obamacare as a means of rationing healthcare was also discussed during an Aspen Institute conference in 2010 when Obama supporter Bill Gates argued that money should not be spent on treating the elderly.

Will the states’ rights movement manage to stop Obamacare in its tracks, or will 2013 see the beginnings of the imposition of mandatory health care cause a major financial collapse in the United States?

Big Brother Becoming Pervasive

America is being turned into the kind of surveillance society that even George Orwell would have laughed off as too crazy to contemplate. Microphones that record conversations are now being installed on buses throughout the country. Similar devices are also being included with new “smart” street lights currently being erected in major cities.

The new wave of “smart” technology in televisions, computers and cellphones is also ensuring that consumers are doing Big Brother’s job for him, by bugging their own homes with sophisticated two-way surveillance equipment, from TVs that spy on viewers to set-top boxes that utilize technology that records conversations in order to bombard users with invasive targeted advertising.

Virtually every new technological device now being manufactured that is linked to the Internet has the capability to record conversations and send them back to a central hub. Is it really any wonder therefore that former CIA directorDavid Petraeus heralded the arrival of the “smart home” as a boon for “clandestine statecraft”?

Will a new renaissance for privacy rights begin to dominate in 2013, or will Big Brother simply get more sophisticated in the plethora of ways it monitors American citizens?

NSA Spying No Longer a Secret

NSA whistleblower William Binney recently revealed that the FBI and other federal agencies record and store the emails of all American citizens.

Binney also warned that the National Security Agency is storing all electronic communications and analyzing them in real time, adding that the federal agency has a Google-style capability to search all conversations for keywords.

Since 2008, the NSA has had the legal power to intercept all phone calls, emails and text messages sent by American citizens without probable cause. However, although long suspected, the agency has never admitted that it is analyzing the content of such messages, conceding only that persons, dates and locations are part of the snooping process.

However, in a sworn declaration to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, Binney, a former NSA employee with the signals intelligence agency within the DoD, divulged that the federal agency, “has the capability to do individualized searches, similar to Google, for particular electronic communications in real time through such criteria as target addresses, locations, countries and phone numbers, as well as watch-listed names, keywords, and phrases in email.”

Will 2013 mark the year that the 4th amendment was enforced to scale back widespread eavesdropping on the American people, or will mass surveillance continue to grow and metastasize?

The Era of Drones

A bill passed by Congress in February paves the way for the use of surveillance drones in US skies on a widespread basis. The FAA predicts that by 2020 there could be up to 30,000 drones in operation nationwide.

As we have previously highlighted, the whole direction of drones and automated robot technology being developed by the likes of DARPA is all geared towards having machines take the role of police officers in pursuing and engaging “insurgents” on American soil.

With more and more police departments and federal agencies turning to drones, 2013 will likely see them begin to flood America skies as the right to privacy becomes an antiquated concept.

The TSA Occupies America

Despite being embroiled in constant scandals, abuses of power, and exposure of its workforce as pedophiles and criminals on an almost daily basis, the TSA is only being given more power and funding.

The federal agency recently announced that it is is seeking permission from the Office of Management and Budget to conduct “security assessments” on highways as well as at 140 other public transportation hubs, including bus depots and train stations.

If approved, it would allow the TSA to to “conduct transportation security-related assessments during site visits with security and operating officials of surface transportation entities.”

In other words, get ready for TSA agents to be groping Grandma on the interstate at some point in 2013.

Will the recent movement to stand up against TSA tyranny snowball and lead major airports to kick out TSA agents and replace them with private screeners, or will 2013 mark the year that the TSA became a literal occupying army throughout America?

Foreign Policy: Backing Terrorists, More Regime Change

The Obama administration is openly backing Al-Qaeda terrorists in Syria who after they have deposed President Bashar Assad have vowed to attack the United States in a bid to impose global Sharia law. These same terrorists killed U.S. troops in Iraq and yet the administration has signaled that hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to the so-called “rebels” will be followed by military might.

In pursuing the same disastrous policy as it did in Libya, the U.S. government is virtually guaranteeing that there will be more attacks on U.S. interests like September’s Benghazi assault led by the very same militants put into positions of influence by NATO and the U.S.

Will 2013 see a more sensible approach to foreign policy or will the Obama administration continue to support terrorists in order to dismantle the few “rogue states” left in the world that are not controlled by the globalists?

2013: Collapse, Re-Birth or Stagnation?

Amidst the myriad of assaults on America as a free country, the globalists themselves admit that a mass uprising against this onslaught is beginning to undermine the agenda for total authoritarianism. During a recent speech in Poland, former US National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski warned fellow elitists that a worldwide “resistance” movement to “external control” driven by “populist activism” is threatening to derail the move towards a new world order.

Will 2013 mark the year America died, or the year that the re-birth of America as land of the free, home of the brave truly began? Or will we still be here in 12 months time lamenting the gradual decline and fall of the United States as it slowly disappears off the pages of history in a similar fashion to the former Soviet Union?

One thing we know for sure is that if 2013 is anything like 2012 – we’re going to be in for one hell of a ride.
